Food Fight Turns Physical: VDM Fans and Police Clash in Shocking Incident at Checkpoint
In a shocking and bizarre incident that has left the public both stunned and perplexed, a dramatic altercation occurred between the popular VDM (Victory Dance Movement) group and a police checkpoint, sparking widespread controversy.

The confrontation, which involved VDM’s leader, Lt.
Yerima, quickly escalated from a simple traffic stop into a full-blown altercation, with accusations of abuse of power, disrespect, and a fierce exchange of words.
To make the situation even more peculiar, the incident reportedly stemmed from a seemingly harmless dispute involving a meal order—specifically, a fight over who had the better jollof rice.
It all started when Lt.Yerima and his group were traveling to a local event in the heart of the city, a gig that was sure to attract the attention of thousands of fans, and they were passing through a standard police checkpoint.

Lt.Yerima, known for his outspoken personality and his association with VDM, did not expect what was about to unfold.
As they approached the checkpoint, police officers directed the vehicle to stop for a routine inspection.
What initially seemed like a routine traffic stop soon escalated into chaos.
According to eyewitness reports, the altercation began when a police officer allegedly asked Lt.Yerima to step out of the car for questioning.
Lt.Yerima, always known for his strong-willed demeanor, refused to comply immediately, citing that the stop was unnecessary and that he was already running late for an important event.

Tensions began to rise as the exchange became more heated, with Yerima demanding to know why he was being singled out, especially when other cars were being waved through without any issues.
The situation took a bizarre turn when, in the middle of the exchange, an officer mentioned that Yerima’s vehicle had been flagged due to a food-related discrepancy.
This seemingly trivial issue involved the delivery of jollof rice, a beloved Ghanaian dish, which had reportedly been ordered by Lt.Yerima earlier that day.
The officer, who was said to have a personal preference for another type of jollof rice, began to mock the singer’s choice of meal, making light of his order.
This seemingly insignificant comment quickly became the catalyst for what would erupt into a full-scale argument.

Lt.Yerima, known to have a quick temper, reportedly became enraged at what he felt was an unprovoked and unnecessary jab from the officer.
According to sources close to the VDM camp, the officer’s comment about the jollof rice was seen as both unprofessional and disrespectful.
In retaliation, Yerima allegedly taunted the officer back, calling into question the officer’s taste in food and suggesting that the officer lacked the discernment to recognize good jollof.
The tension between them built quickly, with both parties trading insults, which did not go unnoticed by onlookers.
What started as an exchange of words soon spiraled into a more aggressive confrontation.
Lt.Yerima reportedly attempted to leave the vehicle, clearly agitated, while the officer attempted to hold him back.
That’s when things became even more heated, with the situation growing dangerously close to violence.
At this point, several members of VDM, who had been in the car with Yerima, got out and began to argue with the police as well.
The group, which is known for its passionate supporters and fiery public persona, added fuel to the fire, creating an atmosphere of chaos.
Eyewitnesses claim that the situation became even more intense when Lt.Yerima allegedly shouted at the officers, challenging them about their behavior and accusing them of “harassing celebrities for no reason.
” It was said that at one point, he even pointed to the food delivery as a reason for the entire altercation, leading to mockery and laughter from the onlookers.
However, things soon took a darker turn when Lt.
Yerima reportedly became more aggressive, making threats to escalate the situation further.
As tensions reached their peak, the situation took an unexpected twist.
A group of bystanders, many of whom were fans of Yerima, began to voice their support for the VDM leader.
They shouted at the police, accusing them of abusing their power and unfairly targeting a public figure.
The situation grew even more chaotic as more and more supporters gathered, with some arguing with the police and others trying to mediate between the two parties.
However, just when it seemed like the altercation was about to escalate into physical violence, a senior officer arrived at the scene and attempted to defuse the situation.
The senior officer intervened, urging both parties to calm down and reminding the police of their duty to maintain professionalism.
After a tense standoff, the police ultimately allowed Lt.
Yerima and his group to leave the checkpoint without further incident, although the mood remained tense.
In the aftermath, both parties went to their respective camps, and the story of the altercation quickly spread across social media.
Videos of the heated argument and subsequent standoff went viral, and the public response was divided.
Some fans of VDM praised Yerima for standing up to the police, seeing the incident as a case of abuse of power by the officers.
Others, however, criticized Yerima for allowing a minor issue to escalate into a full-blown public spectacle.
The public’s reaction also included humorous takes on the jollof rice issue, with social media users debating over the “right” kind of jollof.
The humorous angle of the altercation, revolving around something as seemingly insignificant as food, only served to amplify the attention the incident garnered.
Memes and jokes flooded the internet, with many poking fun at the way something so trivial turned into a full-blown fight between police and civilians.
One of the most talked-about hashtags became #JollofPlaneFight, reflecting the absurdity of the whole situation.
However, it wasn’t all fun and games.
Many critics argued that the incident highlighted serious issues with the relationship between the police and the public, especially celebrities.
The altercation brought to light ongoing concerns about police brutality, harassment of public figures, and the abuse of power by law enforcement officers.
Some also questioned whether the trivial nature of the incident, tied to something as innocuous as a meal, was a reflection of deeper systemic issues that need to be addressed.
The incident has sparked an ongoing debate about the professionalism of police officers, the treatment of public figures, and the role of celebrities in shaping public opinion.
While Lt.Yerima has not publicly commented on the event since the confrontation, sources close to the VDM leader suggest that he remains upset by the way the situation was handled by the police and is considering taking legal action for what he believes was unnecessary harassment.
